Lin Fan only stopped when he saw Lin Aotian's darkened face.
"What do you mean when you say that I'm not from this universe?"
"You should've heard from Lin Hong what kind of existence the Alfate civilization is. With that as the basis, you should be able to understand why I know that you're not from our universe and not the … eavesdropper you think you are!"
Lin Haotian gritted his teeth when he said the last three words.
"Form? Pure energy form? "
"That's right. Have you ever wondered how our energy form evolved?"
"Uh … I've never thought about that!"
Lin Fan shook his head. How would he know the secret of a super civilization evolving into a transcendent civilization?
"Alright, I'll put it simply. In fact, this kind of energy is present in every living being. You humans have it, all other races have it. Therefore, in theory, whether it's a technological civilization or a biological civilization, it can eventually evolve into a transcendent civilization!"
"In fact, this kind of energy was discovered when humans were still in their primitive civilization. There are many documents and records that have been preserved to this day. In fact, there were many people in human history who achieved my current state for a short period of time!"
Hearing this, Lin Fan was dumbfounded.
The key to evolving a super civilization into a transcendent civilization was already known when humans were still in their primitive civilization?
There were also a lot of documents left behind. This was ridiculous. Why didn't he know about it?
Wait …
A special kind of energy?
Humans already knew about it in ancient times?
As long as it was a living being, there would be this kind of energy in their body?
Moreover, there were many people in human history who achieved Alfate's current state, although it was only for a short period of time?
Could it be …
Suddenly, Lin Fan thought of a very ridiculous possibility.
Speaking of which, there was indeed a special kind of energy that had been passed down since ancient times. There were many documents and records of it.
However, since humans could not confirm the existence of this kind of energy, they could not use this kind of energy.
Therefore, this kind of energy only existed in various novels, movies, and other entertainment works.
Moreover, in the long history of humans, there were indeed many people who claimed that they had achieved this state. However, those who said so were basically treated as crazy or liars …
'Could Lin Aotian be talking about this kind of thing?
If that was the case, was Lin Aotian still alive?
As he thought about it, he looked at Lin Aotian with a strange expression.
"Of course I'm alive!"
Hearing Lin Fan's last sentence, Lin Aotian's forehead was filled with black lines as he replied in an annoyed tone.
"Uh, alright, it's my fault!"
"However, is this energy really a soul?"
Lin Fan asked curiously. Although he had once wondered what kind of energy the Alfate civilization was in this pure energy state, Lin Fan did not know.
But no matter how many times he thought about it, he never thought that it was actually soul energy.
It was no wonder that Lin Aotian had records of this in ancient times. Many people had achieved this state for a short period of time.
Alright, isn't it just an out-of-body experience? There are indeed many people who have said that they have such an experience …
However, who would have thought that the so-called out-of-body experience was the pure state of existence of an unrestricted civilization?
"Hold on, the so-called soul is only described by you humans in the primitive stage because you lack the necessary scientific knowledge!"
"In fact, this kind of energy is called proto-nuclear energy in the universe. Of course, proto-nuclear energy must completely abandon the physical body before it can truly be used. This is also the reason why humans in the primitive civilization called this kind of energy the soul!"
"After all, for humans at that time, only death would occasionally cause this kind of energy to appear. This is because the physical body has died but the source of life has not been completely exhausted. Of course, the proto-nuclear energy produced in this way will quickly dissipate when the source of life is completely exhausted!"
"The so-called out-of-body experience is formed when the source of life of a creature temporarily leaves the physical body under certain conditions. However, because the connection between the source of life and the physical body is not completely cut off, it will quickly recover. It can't truly achieve the state of pure proto-nuclear energy!"
Now, Lin Fan understood. So this was what the so-called soul was all about. This was really a learning experience.
"Well, I already know about the scientific interpretation of the soul, but what does this have to do with what you said about me not being from this universe?"
Lin Fan nodded, but he still did not understand. What did this have to do with Lin Aotian seeing that he was not from this universe?
"You still don't understand?"
"Understand what?"
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment. He really did not understand!
"Well, then I'll explain it to you!"
"In fact, the rules of each universe will have some subtle differences. Although in most things, these extremely subtle differences will not have much effect, in some things it is different!"
"Now that you know the secret of an unrestricted civilization, it should be understandable. As the existence of proto-nuclear energy, our Alfate civilization can naturally observe the proto-nuclear energy hidden in every life form very clearly!"
"And the proto-nuclear energy in your body has some subtle differences from the creatures in our universe. It is not even 100% compatible with your body."
"And from this point, I can make a basic judgment. Your life source is not born in this universe, and your current body is not your original body!"
Hearing this, Lin Fan was suddenly shocked.
So that was the case. No wonder Lin Aotian could see through part of his secret.
But then again, is this the scientific interpretation of the soul transmigration in the novels of his previous life?
But if everything was as Lin Aotian said, then did the Earth of his previous life exist in a certain universe?
Lin Fan, who suddenly thought of this possibility, could not stop thinking about it.
It was impossible to say that he did not have any nostalgia for the Earth of his previous life!
If possible, Lin Fan still hoped that one day in the future, he would be able to set foot on his homeland and take a look. Well, that would be considered as returning home in glory, right?
Just as Lin Fan was thinking about this, his thoughts were once again read by Lin Aotian.
However, after Lin Aotian heard Lin Fan's thoughts, the corners of his mouth curled up, and his mood suddenly became very good.
To be honest, after meeting Lin Fan this time and discovering that he was not a native of this universe, Lin Aotian had some doubts in his heart. What if this guy was a spy sent by another universe?
But now that he found out that Lin Fan had such thoughts, Lin Aotian dispelled his last doubts. In fact, when Lin Fan finally thought of returning home in glory, Lin Aotian almost laughed out loud.
"Well, if you understand all this, you should understand why you have no talent for dark energy at all, right?"
"Because my life source is not completely compatible with the laws of this universe?"
At this time, Lin Fan had some guesses and asked directly.
"Yes, as I said just now, this extremely subtle difference, although it will not affect most things, will definitely have an impact on the fundamental energy of the universe, dark energy!"
Lin Aotian nodded and confirmed.
"So, if you want to solve this problem, you have to modify your life source and make it completely compatible with all the laws of this universe. When that time comes, the shackles that restrict your use of dark energy will naturally no longer exist!"
